[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Absolutely I would allow this. I have a kid who gets really into doing "summer bridge" activities in the summer and will set goals for working on certain lessons or memorizing math facts. We do not influence this at all. She also decided at the beginning of the summer she wanted to read 100 books and learn a new vocab word every day. Why not. It is fun to her and we've told her that when it's not fun to stop -- we are supportive of her goals but if we ever saw her freaking out that she hadn't done her math for the day or freaking out that she's only at 85 book by the time school starts we'd intervene. But she has a good attitude about it and she just genuinely really like schoolwork.[/quote] This was me! I still remember a great "word a day" book I had. I'm still kind of a dork (and a lawyer) but pretty functional in life![/quote]
